COURSE INTRODUCTION
This programme builds practical understanding of pump operation and the piping systems that influence performance. Participants review pump types, system curves, drives, couplings, operating conditions, maintenance and troubleshooting so they can recognise inefficiency, prevent recurring problems and improve pumping-system reliability. Practical examples and guided discussion help participants connect the subject to decisions and challenges in their own workplace.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
By the end of this programme, participants should be able to:
- Explain the core concepts, terminology and working principles related to Practical Approach to Pumps and Piping.
- Apply structured methods and industry good practices for Design Aspects of Pumps, Why Increase Pressure of a Liquid using a pump?, and Classification of Pumps.
- Evaluate relevant mechanical & maintenance situations and identify risks, gaps and improvement opportunities.
- Translate the learning into practical workplace actions and sound technical decisions.
COURSE OUTCOME
Upon completion, participants will be better prepared to:
- Assess relevant workplace situations using the concepts and methods covered in Practical Approach to Pumps and Piping.
- Select and apply appropriate tools, checks or controls for Design Aspects of Pumps, Why Increase Pressure of a Liquid using a pump?, and Classification of Pumps.
- Recommend actions that support equipment reliability, maintenance effectiveness and operational performance.
- Communicate findings, improvement opportunities and next steps clearly to relevant stakeholders.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This programme is suitable for maintenance engineers, mechanical engineers, reliability teams, technicians, supervisors, plant personnel and operations teams responsible for equipment performance.
